As a hardware type, I'd prefer a diode noise generator over a radioactivity detector. I'd hate for the Fort to be tempted to fudge the latter's output by flooding my house from a black helicopter...
No, they'll just flood it with RF and force your diode to act as a detector - then they can feed you anything they like ;) I learned the hard way - keep the transmitters away from a reverse-biased doide acting as a noise generator. Only until I examined the output did I realize it wasn't random. I fixed it, though, by looking at the output and testing its randomness. - -- Ed Carp, N7EKG Ed.Carp@linux.org, ecarp@netcom.com 214/993-3935 voicemail/pager Finger ecarp@netcom.com for PGP 2.5 public key an88744@anon.penet.fi Q.
